[quote=Anonymous]Just started at Upper school and kid is loving it.  Middle school is a bad time for kids.  We weren’t at SSSAS for middle and it wasn’t great where we were either.  I think that is true across the board.  It’s sort of a hormone holding tank.  Kids are all over the place hormonally and schools have to figure out how harsh to be when boundaries are pushed.  And they are pushed. Some kids are practically adults while others haven’t even hit puberty and parents often still want them coddled.   I did not agree with the calls made at our school about every incident.  It’s hard because the administrators don’t want to ruin the kids lives but also know they need to set boundaries and enforce rules.  I think every single school gets it wrong in the eyes of some parents.  We generally liked our K-8 and don’t regret sending our kids there at all but my kids have been very happy at their high schools and I think maybe some of the rage on here about SSSAS is from families that think middle school at other places is tranquil and calm and pleasant.  It’s not a great few years anywhere.  [/quote]
